2009 Toyota Avensis 2.2L Diesel · YB09 JWA

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile, maintaining a consistent pass record over the last three years. The most recent test on 25 July 2025 at 161,428 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded. This followed a failure just thirteen days prior at 161,308 miles; although the record shows no specific defects for that failure, it likely indicates a minor non-compliance, such as a bulb replacement or sensor fault, which was rectified immediately before the re-test. The mileage pattern is remarkably consistent for a 17-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 9,500 miles per annum. The data shows a steady accumulation of distance with 4,405 miles covered between August 2022 and July 2023, and another 4,185 miles between July 2023 and June 2024. The jump of 9,542 miles between June 2024 and July 2025 suggests the car is in regular use rather than sitting idle, which is generally beneficial for the rubber components and mechanical seals. Because the MOT history is clean of recurring advisories or structural failures, a physical inspection should focus on age-related wear that annual tests do not capture. A buyer should specifically check for corrosion on the sills and rear wheel arches, as vehicles of this era are prone to structural rust. Given the mileage, inspecting the condition of the suspension bushes, coil springs, and the integrity of the brake lines is essential to ensure the vehicle is not nearing the end of its interval for major wear components.
